MI FOUNDATIONS & ADVANCED MI

FOUNDATIONS: Motivational Interviewing (MI) is an evidence-based therapeutic approach for therapists and non-therapist direct care staff.

These approaches assist in efficiently and effectively developing rapport, meeting the participant where they are, and supporting mandated and voluntary participants toward behavior change.
